GULGALLANA

[soulping]

This is a story of friendship and love and life and rebirth. A story about an unending cycle of despair and the poor souls who keep themselves trapped in it, in the hopes that everything will turn out okay in the end.

You're in a dark, circular room. You can make out eleven doors around the edges, each the colour of one of the teams. ...Except for your own, which seems to be missing.

In the center is a door coloured Cat cream. It won't budge, no matter what you do, so don't bother.

[debate_avenger]

...Of course. We're probably looking at 13 rooms in total, with the objective being to find a way into the Cat room.

[cihuatlatoani]

That would seem reasonable. I suppose we ought to explore the others, then.

[debate_avenger]

Then, to start, we have... Quite a few options, really. Epona would be my guess for the place most likely to be hooked into Cats, but I'm open to ideas on the travel order.

[cihuatlatoani]

Somehow, I doubt any of them are directly linked to that room. We do not seem to be limited by time or other constraining factors, so we may choose as we wish.

[debate_avenger]

True. Then, let me try something...

[Ethereal sense! Is there anything that stands out in this room?]

[soulping]

Does darkness stand out? Otherwise, no.

>

[debate_avenger]

...Well, that was a dead end. As usual.

[Seriously, has this power ever come in handy?]

Then, is there any particular team you want to check on? Well, not that we're likely to actually see the team in question.

[cihuatlatoani]

Mm. Takshaka perhaps? I do know a couple of people on that team.

[debate_avenger]

Takshaka it is, then. There doesn't seem to be anything to do here, anyways.

[Let's check out the door first, though. Examining the Takshaka door!]

[soulping]

It's rather orante, with the image of a snake (does it have wings? What's up with that?) on it. There's a gust of wind, and you feel intensely sick until you move away.

[cihuatlatoani]

[Well, she moves away, then.]

Nn, let us try a different door for now.

[debate_avenger]

I doubt any of the doors are going to be better, but that would definitely be a place to go once we're prepared.

[I have spent half of these Nafuna games fighting plague and disease and that's probably not going to stop now.]

Then, let's see what Dawon looks like.

[Yes, examining the Dawon door...]

[soulping]

It's rather ornate, with the image of a tiger on it. You hear something like a wolf growling on the other side.

>

[debate_avenger]

Well. This one only seems like a fight, at least... Still, do you want to look around some more?

[cihuatlatoani]

[She pats the sword on her hip, and puts her hand on the hilt.]

I suspect they shall all have some obstacle. Let us enter.

[debate_avenger]

Then, let's prepare, and...

[Let me just summon my ridiculous umbrella weapon, and...

Go through the Dawon door.]

[cihuatlatoani]

[She considers summoning up her fire spell in her mind, but decides it would cause too much trouble.

She follows.]

[soulping]

Are you sure you want to continue? You will not be able to return.

>

[debate_avenger]

...No going back, then... Still okay with going through here? We might not be able to help the other teams.

[cihuatlatoani]

If there is a team that you would rather choose, I am quite alright with that.

[debate_avenger]

Well, it's either Takshaka to continue our trend towards fighting disease, Dawon, or Henwen, I think. I'll leave which one we go with to yo this time.

[cihuatlatoani]

Hmm. I shall choose Henwen, then.

[debate_avenger]

[Then, let's just take a glance at Henwen's door to prepare before we head in.]

[soulping]

It's rather orante, with the image of a pig on it. You hear a deafening roar on the other side.
